                          No worries, thank you. I am going to postpone my appointment for tomorrow. I have to get this costs thing and "staging" cleared up.

                            $10000 a treatment??? I have medicare and GAP insurance. This sounds like rich mans medicine. Nobody has told me I have a "stage". As a matter of fact, they said since I "dont have cancer right now" that I dont have a stage. Am I missing something?  It seems now that before the treatment tomorrow, I need to have a "come to Jesus" meeting with them. Any thoughts??
